A different version of the fable has a frog instead of the croc and the sting happens in the middle of the river where the scorpion will drown because he kills the frog via its stinger.

THAT is more like the Mullahs who's nature will wind up killing themselves while killing others.

One major catastrophic attack perpetrated by militant Islamics could spell the eradication and extinction of their religion.

Another variation is a snake freezing by the road. He asks a man to put him under his jacket for warmth.

After the inevitable snake bite, the man says.. "Why..? You promised!"

"But you knew I was a snake when you picked me up."
